Amici Salon – a studio supper club

Introducing Amici Salon - a studio supper club


We’re excited to launch a new strand of activity at Amici Studio: Amici Salon

These are intimate, ticketed evenings that bring together food, art, conversation and live contributions, held alongside our exhibition programme. They’re conceived as social, generous gatherings — a chance to spend time with artists, curators and like minded people around a shared table at Amici Studio.

Our first Salon Dinner will take place on Friday 30th January, starting at 7pm, on the eve of the opening of Fall Apart | Come Together an exhibition in collaboration with Gertrude.

For this first dinner, we’re delighted to be working with our friend Kate Harris of @sharedtablecatering as guest chef. Kate will be cooking a Middle Eastern–inspired menu, which celebrates best local veg and seasonal produce. Served family-style and designed for sharing, the menu centres on vibrant, generous dishes that encourage conversation and a real sense of occasion around the table.

The evening will include:

– A welcome drink and introduction from us

– A curator’s tour of the exhibition by Will Jarvis, founder of @gertrude__art

– Family style dinner and wine 

– Contributions from a selection of the artists in the exhibition

– An additional live or performative element, to be announced shortly

– Great conversation and lasting connections!

This first Salon is very much a trial as we learn how these evenings might evolve. For that reason, tickets are priced at cost only — £55, which includes dinner, a welcome drink and wine throughout the evening. Capacity is limited, and we wanted to release tickets early so people have time to plan.

Amici Salon events are about slowing things down, opening the conversation, and creating space for shared experience around art and the dinner table.

We’d love you to join us at the table.

How it works for Galleries

Amici brings together galleries from different parts of the world, encouraging them to collaborate, share resources, and expand their reach. Through shared exhibitions hosted online and promoted via Amici.Art, galleries can connect with a global audience, enabling clients to browse and purchase artworks directly.

No Sign-up Fees
Galleries only pay a £50 administration fee once a Host and Visitor gallery are successfully paired.

Shared Risk and Profit
Operating costs and profits are shared between Host and Visiting galleries, with Amici taking a 5% commission from each gallery on sales made through the platform only.

Benefits for All Participants

  • Host Gallery: Reduce operating costs, diversify programming, and gain access to new, international audiences.
  • Visiting Gallery: Showcase your artists globally while leveraging the infrastructure of local galleries, avoiding the hectic, costly art fair experience.

Inclusivity and Fair Practice
Amici is committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity, with all galleries adhering to our Code of Conduct.

What We Provide

  • Access to a global network of galleries
  • Tools for event promotion and ticketing
  • Online gallery
  • Printed and digital sales and promotion assets
  • Discounts on services like insurance, shipping, and photography

Ready to Collaborate?
Your gallery should represent artists and maintain a regular exhibition programme in a permanent space to participate. 

Through collaboration, Amici fosters a supportive environment where galleries thrive together by building meaningful connections and expanding their influence.

    About Amici Studio

    Amici Studio is a multi-use creative space based in Hastings, East Sussex. Opening in January 2026 at 12 Claremont, next to Hastings Library, the Studio delivers a public programme of exhibitions, events and learning activity for artists, creative practitioners and local communities across Hastings, St Leonards and the wider East Sussex coast.

    Exhibitions

    The programme is structured around six two-month blocks across the year, each anchored by a core exhibition. These exhibitions form the backbone of Amici Studio’s activity and are accompanied by a wider layer of public-facing events, discussions and artist-led activity.

    Events and Public Programme

    Alongside exhibitions, Amici Studio hosts talks, performances, Salon Dinners and a monthly talks programme launching in spring 2026. These events create opportunities for conversation, exchange and shared experience around contemporary practice.

    Artist Development

    Amici Studio supports artist development through mentoring, portfolio conversations and practical workshops. These activities are designed to reduce barriers to participation, particularly for young people, early-career practitioners, disabled people and carers, and those facing financial or social obstacles to accessing arts and culture.

    In Progress

    When needed, the studio will host short-term artist In Progress occupations, offering space for live making, experimentation and exchange. These projects are process-led and provide opportunities for artists and audiences to engage with work in development.

    Community and Collaboration

    Amici Studio works closely with local partners and organisations, including Project Art Works, who are based in the same building. Collaboration and shared activity are central to the Studio’s approach, supporting connections across practices and communities.
